Been a while since the last update meow. Been busy working, until Tuesday, when my slave cylinder blew while driving home. Rev matching and absolutely no clutch was frightening. I think I wore the synchros between 3-4-5 a bit lol. I also failed to yield at almost every intersection

Picture of the worn slave. I actually got a new one in the mail from Fab9 just a couple of days earlier. Replaced the hard line and hose with a braided one. OH THE DIFFERENCE OMGOMGOMGOMG

Got the new wheels fitted with some 5mm spacers in the front. Only got 3mm spacers in the back as I bought a 2-pack of each meow it just barely clears the caliper bracket in the front.

Took the car to my first track day in almost a year! The new wheels are a perfect match! The tires are perfect for my current power level. Although a bit slower than the 205/50/15 R888, I had lots more fun with these! Ignore my clock spring chirping, and my exhaust rattling lol. Sound to that exhaust whistle at 1:36 hahaha

A good friend of mine is learning to detail and polish cars, so I though he should do mine as a challenge. I have waxed it a handful of times in 3 years. The outcome was unbelievable! I should take better care of my car. Been doing product shopping meow.

Drove home at 3AM and decided to take some pictures! I am absolutely in love with these gauges!

The lift kit is off again. I found out I had a few broken springs on the Maruha coilovers. Good reason to upgrade from 8k/6k to 10k/8k, right?

And I am almost finished with the ITB kit! Got the IAC adapter done, drilled and tapped both the manifold adapter and the vacuum block. meow I got to figure out the throttle wire and check if the adapter aligns with the top.

Finally took the time to fit the intake I have been designing. This is the first 3D printed intake for the Miata NB I have seen anywhere, so that's cool!

First a before picture

And then a picture of the installed part

The intake resembles a saxophone and a cobra. So naturally I named it the Saxcobra. The air philter is a KN round philter with a 92mm diameter opening. I designed the intake around this philter so the fitment is perfect. Part number for the philter is KN-E-0773. The two holes are printed with threads. G1/4" for the breather hose on the cam cover. And a M12x1,5 thread for the IAT sensor.
